Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

I'll definitely be purchasing a Robert Griffin III jersey before the 2012 NFL season starts. Did anyone know that his Redskins jersey has been sold on eBay for the past two months? Not that it matters, I'm dying to see what the Redskins alternative uniform looks like.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

^ Not real ones. I've seen Reebok versions and some really bad-looking knockoffs. Some just say Griffin, no roman numerals.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

I noticed in one of the interviews with Robert Griffin III (might have been on ESPN over the weekend) in the background, there were a couple of his #10 jerseys hanging up with two throwback helmets - one being the yellow helmet with the "R" logo, and the other one the burgundy spear and feather helmet. Of course, we'll know on the 10th officially, what the throwbacks will be this year, but I just thought that was interesting.

is griff going to have triples sticks on his jersey?

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

Yes, Griffin III on his jersey, #10. Confirmed by himself on FB/Twitter.

They may have both just been on display for the anniversary. I saw a RGIII interview in front of the wall of Redskins history with Larry Michael too. They're using our history as backdrops for interviews at Redskins Park it seems.

We'll know in 8 days what the 80th uniform will be!

Confirmed by what Nike is selling too! :D

We better never wear white on white again.

That's a Reebok uniform, check out the NFL Equipment shield on the collar.

The look of the jersey is just off. Numbers are too small on the shoulders. Clearly not one of the new nike jerseys either. The helmet doesn't look real with the sun shining perfectly off of it.

Plus just check here

Didn't know this but wouldn't it be easier to take a Baylor picture of him and photo shop it to the Redskins colors and helmet? Which would lead me to believe it was him with the ball just in his college days.

Sorry, I was being sarcastic. It's pretty obvious that it is a fake. For one, he probably hasn't even put the whole uniform on yet.

Thumb on the laces, creates a backspin on the ball that makes it nearly impossible for defenders to intercept it.

Just check his stats...they don't lie.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

i think the anniversery unis will be the helmets with the spear on it.

Re: 2012 NFL Uniform Thread - Nike takes over
 

I'm leaning towards that too.

We never really had a chance to use the 75th set though, we scrapped them after one game because we were embarrassed by the Giants on the field with them...plus, they use the same gold pants we've been using with our primary set.

I really hope the team makes a big effort instead of taking the lazy option (gold 75th set).

The 70th spear set was not a throwback, it was a modern redisgn of the original, so a true throwback to the '65-'69 set would be great.

If I were in charge, I'd bring back the feather helmets! We've used every other "old" helmet in tributes. The feather is still a unique helmet like nothing else used in the history of the league, plus it still looks cool.

I ordered my RGIII jersey from the Redskins store. It is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. In the photos it looks plain just like the Giants jersey. We will see when it arrives.

I never noticed how large Peyton's forehead is. I'd hate to take a headbutt from that thing.

Also the Broncos new colors are ugly. Thank god we don't look like that.

Agreed, I LOVE the Orange Crush-era uniforms.


But, the new ones look better than this:

That's gotta be a photoshop. His forehead looks massive. And what's up with how big his head is in comparison to his chest? He reminds me of Mr. Mackey lolol.

I don't know I always prefered the blue over the orange. The new orange is too light.
